In this episode of the Trauma Awareness Podcast, we explore what happens when expectations quietly become rigid, and how this rigidity can shape emotional experience across all levels of the body and human experience.
This audio reflection draws from a written exploration published on “Expectation: A Magical Elixir” by Alida Diosa, on how expectations form over time, how they can support growth when held lightly, and how they can create inner pressure, disappointment, or contraction when they remain unconscious.
Rather than offering advice or solutions, this episode invites a slower, more reflective inquiry into how expectations are lived, felt, and carried, and what becomes possible when awareness replaces force.
